DETERGENT.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 692,358, dated February 4-, 1902.

Application filed November 12,1900. Serial No. 36,184. (No specimens.)

use the same.

My composition consists of the following ingredients combined in the proportions stated, namely: washing-soda, twenty pounds; whiting, fifty pounds; borax, six pounds; kieselguhr, ten pounds; resin, six pounds; rouge, four ounces.

In practice the foregoing ingredients are combined in the following manner: The washin g-soda is first dissolved in two quarts of water, and the other ingredients are then mingled therewith, and the product is then made up into a cake or ground into a powder, as may be desired, and the polishing material thus formed is used in the manner of ordinary soap.

My composition is particularly adapted for use as a polishing material for silverware, but maybe used for polishing brass and any other metal, substances, or articles; and the said composition constitutes a polishing material by means of which a perfect polish may be given to all metallic substances, and particu larly to silver articles of various kinds and classes.

I am aware that some of the articles which I employ have heretofore been used for a similar purpose; but I am not aware that all the ingredients of my composition have ever before been combined for the purpose specified.

Having fully described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-

1. The herein-described composition of matter consisting" of washing-soda,whiting,borax, kieselguhr, resin and rouge.

2. The herein-described composition of matter, consisting of Washing soda, twenty pounds, Whiting fifty pounds, borax six pounds, kieselguhr ten pounds, resin six pounds, and rouge four ounces.

In testimony that I claim the foregoing as my invention I have signed my name, in presence of the subscribing witnesses, this 29th day of September, 1900.

DAVID ROOSE-JONES.
